Solar energy services company Solarcity has appointed Matthew Ward as its chief financial officer.
For the past 11 years, Ward has been CFO at NZX-listed Oceania Healthcare when he led the company's $200 million initial public offering in 2017.
Ward also had experience in capital markets and banking, undertaking mergers and acquisitions while at Macquarie Bank.
He said he was excited to be joining Solarcity at a pivotal time for the company as it navigates its way through the current Covid-19 crisis and into a more sustainable future.
"Despite the obvious challenges that it presents for the economy, it also provides a unique opportunity to gain clarity on the drivers of commercial performance and profitability and assess how we are creating value for our customers."
Solarcity has been putting solar systems into Kiwi homes and businesses for more than 35 years and has the backing of Sir Stephen Tindall’s K1W1 investment fund and private equity fund, Pencarrow.
